GRAY HAIR, BIRTHDAYS & ARTICLE 5....OH MY!

                                  Let's just start with the first subject....ummm,

GRAY HAIR 

 Not like I haven't spent a fortune in smoke and mirrors for years now.  But, they have been        


                                                          GROWING LIKE CRAZY


since August.  Why, you ask??


Ok.....You got it now.  

We've done the usual, start simple in the "hood",  then ramp up from there.  Thus far, it's gone well.  Just one MAMED cabinet and some bashed in drywall in the garage......driving well, I think?!!  

Apparently, I sound just like his alarm clock when I say, ever so calmly...
brake now, BRAKE,  BRAKE, BRAKE! 

I, and the alarm clock are both ignored not loud enough???  This is a season I will be in for quite a while with 2 others heading toward 15 too soon.  Truly hope it's an uneventful season!



BIRTHDAYS!!!


Wes got to spend his 12th birthday at his favorite place on EARTH!  My sister's lake house!  He ask's for this EVERY birthday and most times we make his wish come true!  

       We have an abundance of August Birthday Boy's



YES!! Even though he probably doesn't "get " what a birthday is yet....He was included in the Wes, Brad, Jake and Timmy....Boys of August Birthday Bonanza!  Can't WAIT until next August!


Article 5

Heck No, this isn't a reference to some law or the Constitution!!!  We are almost to the end now of our "paper pregnancy"!!!  We are officially 

2 STEPS AWAY FROM


This enormous CUTIE and...


This little lady....love the "concentration" tongue!
We will consider some rapid hair growth remedy anyone suggests!!

So from this point.... the visa petition for both Timothy and Kate are in Guangzhou, China. The American Consulate is reviewing them for approval that they may enter the United States as our legal children.  This "Article 5" takes exactly 2 weeks.
